by Deltavax

During the Battle of the Gods, Moon Knight had succeeded in defeating Arthur Harrow and freeing himself from the services of the Egyptian god Khonshu. One story ends with Khonshu simply hiding in him and creating another personality to assassinate Harrow. In this one, a grief-stricken man takes the mantle to claim vengeance for losing the love of his life from Harrow and his cult.

2. Introduction

"Time. Space. Reality. It's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility, where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities, creating alternate worlds from the ones you know. I am The Watcher. I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me, and ponder the question... What if?"

―The Watcher

Though you are more than aware of heroes such as Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, and the Hulk, or new heroes across the Multiverse such as Captain Carter, there are others yet to be explored. Marc Spector, a troubled man with multiple personalities who traveled to the desert lands of Egypt was left for dead after being shot by his former commanding officer Bushman. Dying, the mercenary crawled into the temple of Khonshu the Egyptian god of the Moon and bargained with him. In exchange for this second chance at life, Spector discovered his newfound purpose and agreed to become Khonshu's avatar: Moon Knight: The Fist of Vengeance.

As time passed, Moon Knight faced many evils Earth had to offer him and eliminated them all. But the biggest battle for him was yet to come on two fronts. One, a man named Arthur Harrow led a cult named the Disciples of Ammit to resurrect the goddess Ammit, the Devourer so she could cleanse the world of all evil. The second front of the coming battle was Moon Knight's own psyche.

Due to the death of his brother younger brother Randall and blamed for it by his mother Spector's psyche had cracked, creating his alternate identity, Steven Grant. Steven is a shy, and awkward Englishman who had a vast knowledge of Ancient Egypt and its pantheon of gods. He had no idea of Marc's, Khonshu's, or Moon Knight's existence until he had first crossed paths with Harrow and his disciples. After going on a journey to travel back to Egypt and even into the land of the Duat, Steven eventually learned the truth about himself and Marc about Randall's death in the cave flooding, and how their mother abused them as a form of punishment.

Escaping the Duat, Marc and Steven learned how to work together as both Moon Knight and Mr. Knight (Steven's Avatar Persona) along with Marc's wife the Scarlet Scarab, and Khonshu, to defeat Ammit and Harrow. The story ends with Marc sparing Harrow's life and commanding Khonshu to release him and Steven of their services. Khonshu "agreed" but in truth, he created a secret persona inside Marc named Jake Lockley to assassinate Harrow while pulling him out of a mental institution. At least, that's how it happened in one universe, but in this one, things take an unexpected perhaps darker turn of events.
